Yes, it really is going to be that painfull!
Having considered all the options Ive decided to stick with the training app that I have been using for the last year and has resulted in the biggest improvement in my running. Hopefully it should result in me doing just about enough to get round the marathon course in somewhere between 5 and 5 and a half hours.
So, the app that Im using is the adidas MiCoach app which gets you running at different speeds for set period of times and if you fail to run at those paces it likes to remind you of the speed you should be running at. Below is the whole of the training programme Im going to try and undertake, and I've tried to estimate how many miles it will result in me doing each week. Its quite a lot..............! (The last week includes the beast that is the 26 miles of the London Marathon)
